Download File IN-DEPTH ANALYSES OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES IN THE SEROWE LEA REGION – PHASE IV FINAL REPORT Submitted to: Director, Research and Development Division Submitted by: Research and Development Division Date of Submission: March 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The phase 4 of the study on the Assessment of Business Opportunities by LEA Regions is a follow up to the first three phases of the study. Phases 1 and 2 identified business opportunities for all the thirteen (13) LEA regions while phase 3 validated business opportunities across the three (3) LEA regions of Tsabong, Ghanzi and Kasane. Therefore, the current phase (phase 4) validated business opportunities for the remaining ten (10) LEA regions of Kanye, Ramotswa, Gaborone, Molepolole, Mochudi, Serowe, Selibe-Phikwe, Francistown, Masunga and Maun. However, this report was limited to carrying out an in-depth analysis of selected opportunities in Serowe LEA region. The analysis was aimed at validating the identified opportunities as well as establishing strengths, challenges and existence of supportive infrastructure and other services that could support the uptake of the identified opportunities in the region. The business opportunities identified and recommended for promotion in phase 1 were ranked in a regional workshop setting with the assistance of members of the District Economic Development Committee (DEDC). Other stakeholders that did not form part of the DDC but were deemed to be resourceful also attended the workshop. A provision was also made for the attendants to include additional opportunities during the workshop which were then included in the ranking process. The rankings were done through the lickert scale allocation of marks to each of the factors stated below to get a mark for each opportunity. Thereafter, the rankings were used as the criterion for selecting opportunities for validation where highly ranked opportunities for the region were selected for further research. Local Enterprise Authority Page ii of 9 F: RDD: 11 Rev.: 01 Opportunities were selected based on their potential to provide a return on investment centred on the following factors: availability of raw materials, availability of technical and financial support, availability of market, suitability of physical environment, climatic conditions, availability of land and water, availability of skills, supporting legislation, infrastructural development, and economic and social strengths of the opportunity. The above mentioned criterion for selection, therefore, formed the basis of the definition of a business opportunity in the context of this study where a business opportunity referred to an area SMMEs would find worthy of investing in due to its potential to provide a return on investment. With the above factors influencing selection of opportunities for further analysis, the four opportunities selected and validated in the region were beef production, tourism-related accommodation, arts and crafts and property development. Local Enterprise Authority Page iii of 9 F: RDD: 11 Rev.: 01 OVERALL STUDY OBJECTIVE The overall objective of the study was to provide in-depth analyses of the selected identified opportunities for the Serowe LEA region. MAJOR FINDINGS All four (4) business opportunities that were analysed during this study were validated for possible adoption by the region. These were commercial beef production, tourism-related accommodation facilities, arts and crafts and property development. The opportunities were validated together with the supportive upstream and downstream activities along the value chain as depicted in Table 1.

Local Enterprise Authority Page vii of 9 F: RDD: 11 Rev.: 01 RECOMMENDATIONS The recommendations being proposed for consideration by LEA management are presented below: SUB SECTOR RECOMMENDATIONS Commercial beef LEA should promote commercial beef production, production especially weaner production, in the Serowe region Tourism-related LEA should promote the tourism accommodation accommodation facilities development in the region. facilities LEA should advocate for tourism facilies to be allocated serviced land. Arts and crafts LEA should promote Arts and Crafts industry commercialization in the region. LEA should advocate for the creation of market center in the Serowe region. Property development The LEA should promote property development in the Serowe region; mainly around the Palapye village due to upcoming developments in the area. The LEA should lobby Ministry of Lands to allocate serviced land to property developers in the region. Local Enterprise Authority Page of 9 ix F:RDD:11 Rev.: 01 OVERALL CONCLUSION The study established existence of a variety of business activities in the Serowe LEA region in four sub-sectors within the beef sector, arts and crafts, property development and tourism-related accommodation. All these opportunities are favoured by the status of the region in terms of the accessibility of the government support and policies in place (financial and technical support) as well as availability of infrastructure (tele- connectivity, power & good road network) and availability of the market.

  • 2011 Population & Housing Census Preliminary Results Brief
    2011 Population & Housing Census Preliminary Results Brief For further details contact Census Office, Private Bag 0024 Gaborone: Tel 3188500; Fax 3188610 1. Botswana Population at 2 Million Botswana’s population has reached the 2 million mark. Preliminary results show that there were 2 038 228 persons enumerated in Botswana during the 2011 Population and Housing Census, compared with 1 680 863 enumerated in 2001. Suffice to note that this is the de-facto population – persons enumerated where they were found during enumeration. 2. General Comments on the Results 2.1 Population Growth The annual population growth rate 1 between 2001 and 2011 is 1.9 percent. This gives further evidence to the effect that Botswana’s population continues to increase at diminishing growth rates. Suffice to note that inter-census annual population growth rates for decennial censuses held from 1971 to 2001 were 4.6, 3.5 and 2.4 percent respectively. A close analysis of the results shows that it has taken 28 years for Botswana’s population to increase by one million. At the current rate and furthermore, with the current conditions 2 prevailing, it would take 23 years for the population to increase by another million - to reach 3 million. Marked differences are visible in district population annual growths, with estimated zero 3 growth for Selebi-Phikwe and Lobatse and a rate of over 4 percent per annum for South East District. Most district growth rates hover around 2 percent per annum. High growth rates in Kweneng and South East Districts have been observed, due largely to very high growth rates of villages within the proximity of Gaborone.

  • An Overview of the Country's Museums
    Botswana Notes and Records, Volume 47 An Overview of the Country’s Museums Sandy Grant* Abstract This article was commissioned by the government’s Information Department in 2006 to be part of its commemorative publication for the 40th anniversary of Independence. It was only recently that I discovered that this book had indeed been published but without this chapter. The historical background remains as factually correct as it was then. Other information, for instance, such as staffi ng levels, was correct at the time of writing. Otherwise signifi cant change since the article was written has occurred only, I believe, at the Phuthadikobo Museum in Mochudi. The Country’s Museums Botswana’s pattern of museum development has probably been one that has occurred nowhere else because neither the pre-Independence British government nor the post-Independence government established even a single museum. Yet, in one form or another, the country now possesses no less than eight museums every one of which has been started as a non-governmental organisation (NGO) initiative. On the other hand, one of those museums, now known as the Department of National Museum and Monuments, was taken over by the government in 1976, eight years after it was established. But let us start at the beginning. The founding father of museums in this country is clearly the colonial administrator, Vivian Ellenberger who was responsible for drafting the terms of the Historical Monuments Commission in 1935. He drew up the fi rst list of monuments and in 1938 he proposed that a museum be established. Ellenberger sought funds through the Colonial Offi ce from the Carnegie Corporation in New York, and suggested that the museum could be located either at Mahikeng, Mahalapye or Gaborone.

In this stats brief, the reference point of the population projections was the 2011 Population and Housing Census, in which the total population by age and sex is available. Population projections give a picture of what the future size and structure of the population by sex and age might look like. It is based on knowledge of the past trends, and, for the future, on assumptions made for three components of population change being fertility, mortality and migration. The projections are derived from mathematical formulas that use current populations and rates of growth to estimate future populations. The population projections presented is for Cities, Towns and Villages excluding associated localities for the year 2020. Generally, population projections are more accurate for large populations than for small populations and are more accurate for the near future than the distant future.
